Please dont ask for a "source" as i wont give one. All I'll say is Im related to one of the other Aboriginal boys at the club.
But ive read some of the absolute horseshit on here for 2 days and wasnt gonna post, but i am gonna just clarify a few things.
Bundy isnt "running away" He genuinely finds Geelong suffocating. He isnt able to go to the shops without being hassled. Now I know a lot of players take it in their stride, but for some personality types its a huge issue, and he is one that does. It's that reason he wont go to the Eagles.
He also does have some personal issues going on. More than one. And Geelong and any prospective club know what those are. The reality is that those issues, added with his back, mean that right or wrong, his trade value is diminished. In a similar way to Mitch Clark - if Clark was fit and didnt have depression issues - he'd command a 1st round pick. That isnt the case. In the same way, Allen has some baggage at the moment - and thats gonna cost us in terms of a trade.
Finally. For all the people coming on and hanging shit on him, bagging and judging him. Not one of you know him, or his situation or his life. So instea of standing on your soapbox and shouting with your holier than thou attitudes, remember, he's a 23 year old young fella trying to find his way in the world. This is his life. To you its a speedhump to the club you dearly love, but at the end of the day it's JUST football. Its not your total whole encompassing life. So take a breath, get some perspective and let it play out. The sun will come up tomorrow, and the Cats will still be contenders. Sadly one of our favourite players wont be a part of it, but we'll still have a full list of Cats players to cheer for who will go really close again next year. And hopefully Bundy will be able to get his life together and make a fresh start.
